About this venue
Daio Wasabi Stayen Stadium is a recognizable stadium in Sint-Truiden, connected with the modern Stayen sports complex and important for football, sports, and other events in the city. Its compact architecture offers a clear view of the pitch from the stands, while the stadium capacity supports an atmosphere in which visitors remain close to the action and the main event.
The interior experience is based on clear spatial organization, good visibility, and practical visitor facilities. The stands create a more direct acoustic effect than large stadiums, so chanting, music, and event announcements carry well through the venue. Food points, sanitary facilities, and circulation areas help make the visit easier before and during the event.
The stadium is located at Tiensesteenweg 168, Sint-Truiden, Belgium. The entrance area is most easily approached from Tiensesteenweg, with road access and parking options available in the immediate surroundings of the complex.

About the city
Sint-Truiden, a city in Belgian Limburg and the heart of the fertile Haspengouw region, is a pleasant destination for visitors who want to combine a trip to a sports or music event with a relaxed stay in a smaller, well-organized city. Known for its orchards, historic center and welcoming atmosphere, Sint-Truiden offers enough to enjoy before an event, during a short city break or as part of an extended stay after a concert or match. The proximity of the stadium, local hospitality venues and accommodation makes it a practical choice for audiences who want simple travel planning without the crowds of major metropolitan areas.
Transport connections are one of the city’s main advantages. Station Sint-Truiden is within walking distance of the center, while rail connections through the Belgian SNCB/NMBS system provide access from Hasselt, Genk, Leuven, Brussels and other important cities. Local bus transport is operated by De Lijn, which further connects the center, surrounding neighborhoods and access points to sports facilities. For arrivals by air, the key options are Brussels Airport and Liège Airport, from where the journey can continue by train, bus or road. The Stayen stadium is located very close to the railway station, making arrival for football and other events especially easy without the need for complicated transfers.
Before or after an event, it is worth walking to Grote Markt, the city’s main square surrounded by historic buildings, terraces and a distinctive urban atmosphere. In the old center, the tower of the former abbey, churches, quiet streets and places connected with the city’s rich Benedictine tradition stand out. A visit to Sint-Truiden can easily be complemented with a tour of the beguinage, a short walk through city parks or an excursion toward the Haspengouw landscape, a region known for orchards and green routes. In this way, the city offers more than just a ticket: a combination of events, history, gastronomy and a calmer Limburg rhythm.
